MUMBAI: While K-drama enthusiasts were glued to their screens yesterday, i.e. June 5, 2020, to watch the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards, which is like the Korea equivalent of the Oscars, fans of Crash Landing on You were in awe of the series' lead couple, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin. The reason why they're so popular is not just because of their impeccable acting range but also as an onscreen couple, they set fire on ice. Hence, it came as no surprise that they took home the Tiktok Popularity Award during the prestigious award ceremony.

Given their undeniable chemistry on the show, fans and media immediately started speculating as to whether they are in a relationship IRL. During a press conference for the K-drama in 2019, when a reporter asked the pair if it was burdensome to shoot together because of the dating rumours, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin laughed it off. "As you can see, we laughed it off. It did not affect or inconvenience in choosing work. We worked together, and we were friends because of the work. As I said, I wanted to work together again, and I gladly chose the chance," Hyun shared via PICKON. 

"So am I. Hyun Bin told everything well. I also wanted to work with him in a good romantic drama or comedy. I don't know if the director was worried or not, I wasn't at all, and I just thought it would be nice to work with Hyun Bin," Son mirrored her co-star's sentiments. For the unversed, before Crash Landing on You, the pair worked in a movie together, The Negotiation.
